Miller has to go. Reporters need to be on this more fiercely than they reported about Biden’s age. The stakes are so much higher.

A computer made that ships loading plan and someone manually altered it, potentially having to manually cross reference containers by owner/colour, while adhering to loading limits, that is someone with a mission.

What happens the next time Homeland Security murders someone and there's no video of it? Will mainstream media take the Trump regime's word as gospel even though they know they lie all the time? I'd like to think the answer is no. But I'm not at all sure.

About a week before federal agents shot him to death, Pretti “stopped his car after observing ICE agents chasing what he described as a family on foot, and began shouting and blowing his whistle.”

ICE tackled him to the ground and broke his rib.

“That day, he thought he was going to die.”
